aawwww, good for you LL.
Just unconditional acceptance.....
Any open wounds you have should be well protected(gloves until healed if on hands)
Have you had twinrix? Thats hep shots?
Also come fall you might wanto get flu vaccine, and poss meningitiis as well.
These people, if they street people have lotsa 'stuff'.
But don't be afraid to hug.
When you cleaning up, don't just grab lumps of stuff, shake and check for needles first.
Don't make too long eye contact.
Always be alert.
Be ready to duck! LOL.
Stay away from fights or arguments, let staff handle them.
Etc etc.
I think you'll find many amazing moments...
Also, NEVER lend money.
If you want to pass out occ treats, buy a deck of smokes and DISCRETELY pass them out (or you'll cponstantly get asked....).
hmmm
goto go
